This article is for faculty seeking information regarding hiding child sections on the My Courses page in HuskyCT. When sections are combined in HuskyCT, the original sections are referred to as child sections. Students will only see the course title in HuskyCT for the section that they are registered for, but when they click on it, they enter the combined section HuskyCT site. Instructors can see both the Child Section course titles and the combined section course title in their list. To avoid confusion, instructors should hide the Child Sections.
Viewing Your Course List and Identifying Child Sections
Hiding Child Sections
Click on the gear icon to the upper right of the My HuskyCT Classes box.
In this view, Child Course will not appear in the course name, but you will see the individual section numbers. The Combined Section will have an M at the beginning of the course title, and all the child section numbers will be listed.
Uncheck the Course Name boxes for each child section. Leave the Course Name box for the combined section checked.
Click Submit to save your changes.
The 4 digit term code in your course title conveys information that is important for when you are choosing the courses to hide. The middle two numbers indicate the year and the last number indicates the academic term (1 for winter, 3 for spring, 5 for summer, 8 for fall). For example, 1138 denotes Fall 2013 and 1143 denotes Spring 2014.
In the example below, all the term codes depicted are for Fall 2013.
